The Nigerian governors under the umbrella of Nigeria Governors’ Forum, NGF, has again insisted that paying N30,000 as minimum wage is not feasible.

The governors warned the N30,000 minimum wage could lead to reduction of workforce as only Lagos State has the capability to pay.

The Tripartite Committee on review of Minimum wage headed by Amal Pepple had submitted the Report to President Buhari for onward forwarding as Bill to the National Assembly.

However, according to Lai Mohammed, Minister of Information, the President is yet to fully study the Tripartite recommendation which proposed N30,000 as minimum wage.

The governors made the submission after an emergency meeting on Wednesday, November 14, asking the Federal Government to accede to the review of the national revenue allocation formula.
